i think the irony here is that president obama, when he was candidate obama, ran on this message that president bush's unilateral approach in iraq was not acceptable and now he finds himself in a position where he doesn't have the support, it seems like, from the uk, and he is on the brink of launching an attack against syria, largely alone. i think it's interesting that the president is somebody who is not interested in having his legacy be largely defined by wars. i think he would much rather his legacy be defined by his ability to turn around the economy after a global financial crisis, a passing a land mark, a health care law. he certainly wants to be the president who is able to fix the country's broken immigration system and i think it will be interesting to see if the president does decide to launch an attack against syria, how his legacy will be changed as a result of this. does he become the president whose legry is defined by wars and something that he certainly, i think, wants to avoid. it's not something he was looking for. >> colonel, the president receiving pushback from

why is president obama threatening to shut the government down to force obama care down the throats of the american people? >> joining me now is politico reporter for "u.s. news and world record" lauren fox and a reporter, christine know valentino. what do you make of this spin? do you think the voters will buy that? >> the first part of what he said is exactly right. president obama and senate majority leader will say that republicans are threatening to shut down the government. that idea, we've had this multiple times when you've got these big deadlines of government funding about to expire, these threats loom. and people do tend to blame house republicans, not necessarily senate republicans. when you have a divided government like this, senate democrats have a lot of ability to stop anything that republicans want to happen and house republicans have the ability to stop anything senate democrats in the white house want to happen. you end up having a tradeoff of blame and polls show that the american people do tend to blame republicans more. generally they're just very, very angry at
